[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a portable commode chair according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a chair body, a load-bearing plate 1, and two armrests 2. The load-bearing plate 1 is connected to the chair body and has a drain outlet 101. The two armrests 2 are slidably connected to both sides of the chair body, and an adsorption element 3 is provided at the end of the armrest 2 away from the load-bearing plate 1. In this embodiment, by connecting the back-and-forth sliding armrests 2 to the chair body and providing adsorption elements 3 on the armrests 2, when in use, the armrests 2 slide backward until the adsorption elements 3 are adsorbed onto the wall behind the commode chair. When the user gets up and supports themselves with their hands on the armrests 2, since one end of the armrest 2 is against the wall, the armrest 2 is located between the user's hand and the wall, thus preventing the commode chair from suddenly shifting. This avoids the problem of the user falling due to sudden chair shift, effectively improving the protection of the user and making the commode chair of this embodiment highly safe.

[0031] In this embodiment, the chair body includes two main supports 4 and two secondary supports 5. The two main supports 4 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. One secondary support 5 is rotatably connected to one main support 4. One armrest 2 is connected to one main support 4. The load-bearing plate 1 is located between the two main supports 4, and its two sides are rotatably connected to the two secondary supports 5 respectively. Because the main supports 4 and secondary supports 5 are rotatably connected, and the load-bearing plate 1 is rotatably connected to the secondary supports 5, the main supports 4, secondary supports 5, and load-bearing plate 1 can be folded and stored when not in use. This folded design also makes the chair easier to carry, improving its portability and facilitating placement. When using the chair, the main supports 4, secondary supports 5, and load-bearing plate 1 are unfolded, and the chair is placed above the toilet bowl. The user can then sit on the load-bearing plate 1 and use the toilet through the drain opening 101. Therefore, the chair in this embodiment is foldable, saving storage space and making it easier to carry. In this embodiment, both the main supports 4 and secondary supports 5 are support plates.

[0032] Furthermore, the commode chair also includes a first reinforcing rod 6 and a second reinforcing rod 7. The first reinforcing rod 6 is located between the two main supports 4, and both ends of the first reinforcing rod 6 are connected to the two main supports 4 respectively. The second reinforcing rod 7 is located between the two secondary supports 5, and both ends of the second reinforcing rod 7 are connected to the two secondary supports 5 respectively. By setting the first reinforcing rod 6 and the second reinforcing rod 7, the chair body can be made more stable.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a further explanation of the handrail 2.

[0035] In this embodiment, the main support 4 is provided with a mounting rod 8, and the handrail 2 is provided with a long groove 201 extending along its length, into which the mounting rod 8 is inserted. The handrail 2 can be moved back and forth by pushing or pulling.

[0036] Furthermore, the main support 4 is also equipped with a limiting rod 9, which is located above the handrail 2 and fits against the top surface of the handrail 2. Since the handrail 2 is connected to the main support 4 by inserting the mounting rod 8 into its sliding groove 201, the handrail 2 can rotate around the mounting rod 8 as an axis. When stored, the handrail 2 is rotated to be parallel to the main support 4, and when in use, the handrail 2 is rotated to be intersecting with the main support 4. The limiting rod 9 is provided so that when the handrail 2 rotates, the limiting rod 9 abuts against the handrail 2, preventing the handrail 2 from rotating, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the handrail 2.

[0037] Optionally, the adsorption element 3 in this embodiment is a suction cup.

[0038] In addition, the toilet chair in this embodiment also includes a mounting frame 10, which has an L-shaped structure. The mounting frame 10 is connected to the armrest 2 and located at the end of the armrest 2 near the load-bearing plate 1. The parallel section of the mounting frame 10 is parallel to the armrest 2, and the vertical section of the mounting frame 10 is connected to the armrest 2. In use, a roll of toilet paper can be placed on the mounting frame 10 for easy cleaning after using the toilet. One end of the vertical section of the mounting frame 10 is connected to its horizontal section, and the other end is connected to a baffle 11 to prevent sharp edges and improve safety.

[0039] The other structures in this embodiment are the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.

[0040] Example 3

[0041] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that, based on embodiment three, the toilet chair in this embodiment also includes a cleaning mechanism and a waste container 16.

[0042] In this embodiment, the commode chair also includes a cleaning mechanism. A groove 102 is provided on the bottom surface of the support plate 1, located outside the discharge port 101. The cleaning mechanism includes a support frame 12, a mounting plate 13, and a cleaning pad 14. One end of the support frame 12 is slidably inserted into the groove 102, and the other end extends to the discharge port 101. The mounting plate 13 passes through the discharge port 101 and is detachably mounted on the support frame 12. The cleaning pad 14 is detachably connected to the side of the mounting plate 13. After defecation, the mounting plate 13 is connected to the support frame 12. The cleaning pad 14 is located between the inner wall of the discharge port 101 and the mounting plate 13. Moving the mounting plate 13 causes the support frame 12 to slide along the groove 102, allowing the cleaning pad 14 to wipe the inner wall of the discharge port 101, thus achieving cleaning.

[0043] Specifically, the support frame 12 includes a support plate 1201 and a connecting column 1202. The connecting column 1202 is vertically connected to one end of the support plate 1201 and is slidably inserted into a slot 102. The other end of the support plate 1201 is provided with a connecting groove 1203, and the bottom end of the mounting plate 13 is inserted into the connecting groove 1203. The sliding of the entire support frame 12 is achieved by sliding the connecting column 1202 on the slot 102. The bottom end of the mounting plate 13 is detachably inserted into the connecting groove 1203, facilitating the installation and removal of the mounting plate 13. Furthermore, the mounting plate 13 in this embodiment includes a first mounting portion 1301 and a second mounting portion 1302 connected to each other. The first mounting portion 1301 is a rectangular plate, and the second mounting portion 1302 is an arc-shaped plate. The first mounting portion 1301 is used for support and connection, so that the top of the mounting plate 13 can extend to the top and outside of the drain port 101 for convenient operation. The cleaning pad 14 connected to the second mounting portion 1302 can clean the top surface of the load-bearing plate 1. In addition, a handle 15 is connected to the mounting plate 13, and the outer side of the handle 15 is provided with anti-slip grooves 1501201. Optionally, the cleaning pad 14 is a sponge pad. After using the commode chair, the cleaning pad 14 can be soaked with a certain amount of disinfectant alcohol or cleaning agent. Then, the mounting plate 13 is inserted into the connecting groove 1203 on the support frame 12. The handle 15 is then used to move the mounting plate 13 and the support frame 12 along the slide groove 201. At this time, the cleaning pad 14 can be used to wipe away any residual urine and excrement on the inner wall of the excrement outlet 101. After wiping, the mounting plate 13 is removed from the support frame 12, and the cleaning pad 14 is replaced for easy cleaning of the inner wall of the excrement outlet 101 next time. This avoids the problem of urine and excrement residue easily remaining on the surface of the commode chair after use, effectively improving the cleanliness of the commode chair.

[0044] Furthermore, the toilet seat in this embodiment also includes a waste container 16, which is detachably connected to the load-bearing plate 1. When the waste container 16 is connected to the load-bearing plate 1, it is located below the discharge port 101. In this embodiment, the waste container 16 is connected to the load-bearing plate 1 via slide rails 17. Two slide rails 17 are connected to the bottom surface of the load-bearing plate 1. The two slide rails 17 are located on the left and right sides of the discharge port 101, respectively. The slide rails 17 have an L-shaped structure and are arranged in parallel and symmetrically. The top of the waste container 16 is provided with a flange, which is inserted between the horizontal section of the slide rail 17 and the load-bearing plate 1. If the user is a patient with limited mobility, the main support 4, the secondary support 5 and the load-bearing plate 1 can be unfolded, and the excrement bucket 16 can be connected to the bottom of the load-bearing plate 1 via the slide rail 17. The excrement bucket 16 can be moved to align with the excretion port 101. After that, the user can use the toilet without going to the toilet. After use, the caregiver can collect and dispose of the excrement in the excrement bucket 16.

[0045] The other structures in this embodiment are the same as in Embodiment 2, and will not be described again here.

[0046] The working process of this utility model is as follows: First, unfold the main support 4, the secondary support 5 and the load-bearing plate 1, and place the toilet chair above the squat toilet pit. Then, put the toilet paper roll on the mounting frame 10 for easy cleaning of the body after using the toilet. After unfolding the main support 4, the secondary support 5 and the load-bearing plate 1, rotate the armrest 2 to make the armrest 2 horizontal. At this time, the top of the armrest 2 will be attached to the limiting rod 9. The limiting rod 9 is used to limit the rotation angle of the armrest 2. Then, move the armrest 2 along the mounting rod 8 towards the wall behind the toilet chair until the suction member 3 is attached to the wall. At this time, the suction member 3 is used to suction the wall to limit and fix the armrest 2. Then, the user can sit on the load-bearing plate 1 and use the toilet through the excretion port 101.

[0047] When the user finishes using the toilet and stands up, they can support themselves with their hands on the handrail 2. Since one end of the handrail 2 is against the wall, the toilet seat will not suddenly shift.

[0048] After using the toilet chair, first allow the cleaning pad 14 to absorb a certain amount of disinfectant alcohol or cleaning agent. Then, insert the mounting plate 13 into the connecting slot 1203 on the support frame 12. Next, use the handle 15 to move the mounting plate 13 and the support frame 12 along the slot 102. At this time, the cleaning pad 14 can be used to wipe the residual urine and excrement on the inner wall of the excretion outlet 101. After wiping, remove the mounting plate 13 from the support frame 12 and replace the cleaning pad 14 for easy cleaning of the inner wall of the excretion outlet 101 next time. Finally, fold the main support 4, the secondary support 5 and the load-bearing plate 1, and then place the toilet chair in the designated storage location.

[0049] If the user is a patient with limited mobility, the main support 4, the secondary support 5 and the load-bearing plate 1 can be unfolded, and the excrement bucket 16 can be connected to the bottom of the load-bearing plate 1 via the slide rail 17. The excrement bucket 16 can be moved to align with the excretion port 101. After that, the user can use the toilet without going to the toilet. After use, the caregiver can collect and dispose of the excrement in the excrement bucket 16.

[0050] In summary, this utility model embodiment provides a commode chair, which has a sliding armrest 2 connected to the chair body, and the armrest 2 is provided with an adsorption member 3. When in use, the armrest 2 slides backward until the adsorption member 3 is adsorbed onto the wall behind the commode chair. At this time, when the user gets up, when he / she supports himself / her hand on the armrest 2, since one end of the armrest 2 is against the wall, the armrest 2 is located between the user's hand and the wall, so the commode chair will not suddenly shift, avoiding the problem of the user falling due to the sudden shift of the chair. This effectively improves the protection of the user by the device, making the commode chair of this utility model embodiment highly safe. Furthermore, after using the commode chair, the cleaning pad 14 can be soaked with a certain amount of disinfectant alcohol or cleaning agent. Then, the mounting plate 13 can be inserted into the connecting groove 1203 on the support frame 12. After that, the mounting plate 13 and the support frame 12 can be moved along the slot 102 by the handle 15. At this time, the cleaning pad 14 can be used to wipe the residual urine and excrement on the inner wall of the excretion port 101. After wiping, the mounting plate 13 can be removed from the support frame 12 and the cleaning pad 14 can be replaced. This avoids the problem of urine and excrement easily remaining on the surface of the commode chair after use, and effectively improves the cleanliness of the commode chair.
